Overview

See New York City’s amazing skyline lit up in a perspective normally reserved for private charters! This unique experience starts at Linden Municipal Airport, in Linden, NJ in one of Helicopter Flight Services’ 6-passenger Bell407 helicopters or 7-passenger high-visibility Airbus EC130T2 helicopters.

The journey begins by flying past Newark International Airport or Staten Island towards Manhattan. En route to the New York Harbor, views of the illuminated Statue of Liberty will awe before viewing the skyscrapers of the Financial District. Flying north along the Hudson River, guests will catch a glimpse of the Empire State Building, as well as Madison Square Garden, Hudson Yards, Chelsea, The West Village, SOHO and TRIBECA. 9/11 Memorial and One World are also in view.

Guests will fly the length of Central Park, glimpsing Yankee Stadium before turning around at the top of Manhattan! They will fly above the George Washington Bridge, one of the busiest bridges in the world.

The people were really friendly and professional and the pilot was very entertaining! Really wonderful views of New York at night, you get to see all the main attractions!

This was an AMAZING, very very well arranged trip. If you're thinking about a helicopter tour over NYC I highly recommend this one.
One day before your flight there is someone via email or phone helping you with the train to Linden New Jersey and if you're interested in a limousine service from Linden to the airport. You will get a recommendation for the train you need to take to be in time. Once you've arrived at Linden a limousine service will take care of you. They even called me to make sure you are on time and found your driver.
The flight took 28 minutes and was underlined by lounge music which I totally loved. You're able to see every sight of the big apple. Totally amazing! I've done other helicopter flights over NY and this was definitely the best!

Overall it was a wonderful experience and the staff was very accommodating. The flight was beautiful and worth the short drive to Jersey to get the night flights we can't get in NY. It was easy to find. Parking was a breeze. The pilot was knowledgeable and friendly. I just wish they offered slightly longer flights and that we could have gotten a bit closer to the bridges. I would definitely recommend!
